[slim] Non-US Duet Delivery?

2008-03-12 Thread MadScientist

Just spoke to Ripcaster who claim they will be the one of the first
retailers to get the Duet in the UK.   Their rep claims that they
haven’t even been able to get a firm date when the units will leave the
European distribution hub.   So what’s the delay and how much longer
will we foreigners have to wait?

Don't know about Ripcaster, but Duet started shipping this week in EU
and is available for example from the 13th of March in this store in
the Netherlands:

2008-03-12 Thread herts101

Would be good to get an official answer on this.

I was really hoping Ripcaster were going to ship tomorrow.  Logitech's
UK site doesn't even have a pre-order option, Amazon.co.uk is quoting
2-5 weeks and advancedmp3players.co.uk having said they would have
stock today now simply say "Out of Stock".  Am I missing someone who
does stock it?

Surely the European/UK market is important.  Shipping one in from the
Netherlands to the UK isn't really a viable option.

For the most part, in the EMEA region, we use a pure distribution model.
That means we ship to distributors who ship to retailers, who ship to
you.

EMEA is definitely shipping, but I'm not sure where the supply is in
the channel.

The timing on the Controller/Receiver availability is not reliable.

We'll let you know when we've released them, then you can add 2-3 weeks

This is getting a little frustrating. I spoke to AdvancedMP3Players
this morning (one of 2 retailers I have a Duet order with, the other
being ripcaster) and they advised that they were due a shipment from
their Dutch supplier yesterday (12th) but this didnt arrive so they
were waiting for the supplier to advise a new date. The website is now
showing 17th Mar but if the supplier has no stock and isnt likely to
get any for a number of weeks, why are they quoting dates (to their
customers i.e. the retailers) that they cant fulfill?

I always suspected that we wouldnt see the Duet/Controller/Receiver in
the UK until Q2 at the earliest and this now looks like being the
case:-(

Thanks, however, I am just concerned with the Duet (SBC+SBR
combination) at the moment (I have 2 on order). I had always assumed
that it would take longer before retailers would be offering SBC's or
SBR's individually.

I just ordered my duet from ripcaster, cheaper than any swedish retailer
and they delivery is apparently free ? to sweden to.
0 gbp in for that at checkout.

the SBR will be my kitchen radio while I'm happy with one SBC for both
my players (I have SB3 for the main ht/stereo).

i could not wait for the prices to adjust he he.
If this product is a success (hitting the mass market) we will probably
see some kind "market economy" even in northern Europe.

2008-03-17 Thread EliteAV

Well, I suppose I shouldnt be surprised. AdvancedMP3Players.co.uk have
just changed the stock date from today (17th) to 19th and with Easter
coming up, what is the betting that the date slips again.

Ripcaster havent updated their date yet (so still showing 14th Mar),
but it is very likely that they get stock from the same supplier as
AdvancedMP3Players so I would expect the same date from them as well.

It is strange why there are so many delays getting the stock from the
European distribution centre (in Holland) to the UK.

Depressing isn't it!  It does seem to be taking a lot longer than one

I've just changed my order from a Controller to a Duet in the rapidly
diminishing hope that I would get my hands on it before the Easter
break.

I did exactly the same thing, ordered a Controller from MediaHome, in
January, and recently changed the order to a Duet package... not helped
though, still no sign of delivery.

MediaHome's website is still saying first week in March ... yeah, but
which year?

just openened the package from Ripcaster (handily delivered during

have to wait until this evening now to set it up at home and see how it
performs.

As it says on the site - they "hope" to get new stock by the end of the

Re: [slim] Non-US Duet Delivery?

2008-03-18 Thread Brian Ritchie

When I looked at Ripcaster at 9am on Tuesday and saw "In Stock", I
decided to order.  I hoped that they might have some spare after the
pre-orders (I tried to call to check this, but only got an
answerphone). By the time I checked later that morning, they were out
of stock again :-( but were expecting more stock later this week :-)

I got an email in the evening saying that they didn't receive enough
stock to "complete" my order, but they're expecting more stock next
week. (This doesn't exactly say that one of that stock is earmarked as
MineMineMine, but I'll be optimistic for now!)

Ah well, I didn't think it'd be easy to get hold of one yet, and had
resigned myself to waiting. I suppose if I were really, really keen I
could try to find another place that really has one spare right now,
but I'm not that desperate (only single-really keen).  I might revisit
this decision if "next week" starts to slip.

Tried to order today, 15 minutes after the status chaged to "in-stock"
on the online shops (Most swiss online dealers don't have a stock, they
just get it delivered directly from the distrubitor)

Needles to say, They couldn't process my order because the 5 (Yes Five)
that were delivered to the dirstributor were sold out in minutes ..

:(


My point still being: Slimdevices refuses to talk about developments.
Whips out a device at the CES and makes us wait 3 Months to get them
...


I will now try to order through the US (get it shipped to the US), if
they can provide a warranty for Switzerland. (Which Logitech probably
can't as they rely on distributors for warrantys...)

Re: [slim] Non-US Duet Delivery?

2008-04-01 Thread Brian Ritchie

I ordered mine from Ripcaster on the 15th as well, and got it today.
(Having received the email yesterday afternoon, I was allowed to work
from home to wait for the parcel; thanks boss!) That hasn't felt like
too long a wait, but then it's not my first Squeezebox (I remember how
long *that* felt!)

Very easy to set up; the controller got hold of my SB3 very quickly.
The receiver took a few minutes to get going, but was soon in action.

Controller is very slick and quite quick, but there are some things I
miss from the IR remote (like a shuffle button and "play this next")
and from the web interface (rearrange playlist, and not yet got plugins
working).  I have hopes that solutions to these will appear, and they're
not showstoppers.

I'm tickled by the Flickr screensaver!

Got mine yesterday from Ripcaster too and loving it.

My first Squeezebox and (with SC already installed), I had the whole
thing set up within 5 minutes.

Quicker to install than my AppleTV which is always touted as being
great.

There are a couple of things which look like they aren't quite working
but fairly minor and I'll play it with a bit more before posting
problems here.

Even the wife says she can just about understand what it does now!!!

Peter.

D'oh! Press and hold "+", as on what I now call the old remote.

That was clearly a bit optimistic. *SIGH*. I'm beginning to get resigned
to the fact I'll be old and grey before it arrives.

Re: [slim] Non-US Duet Delivery?

2008-06-14 Thread herts101

I spoke to Ripcaster on Friday (13th) and they said the Recevier stock
arrived that day, would be posted out Monday and be with us by
Tuesday.

Good news but I've heard it before with my original Duet and it turned
out there stil wasn't enough stock to satisfy demand.

If there is anyone from Slimdevices / Logitech US reading this, you
really should put some pressure on your European subsidiary to sort out
these kind of problems so that they don't happen again with your next
release.

Do you really have to be tied into that distribution deal?  They're not
very good at satisfying your customers.

Peter.

Two months to the day after ordering, I have a Squeezebox Controller in
my hand. Can't wait to get it home. First impressions: awesome!
